问题     My Space and other Web sites have unleashed a potent new phenomenon of social networking in cyberspace,【1】at the same time, a growing body of evidence is suggesting that traditional social【2】play a surprisingly powerful and under-recognized role in influencing how people behave.
    The latest research comes from Dr. Nicholas A. Christakis, at the Harvard Medical School, and Dr. James H. Fowler, at the University of California at San Diego. The【3】reported last summer that obesity appeared to【4】from one person to another【5】social networks, almost like a virus or a fad. In a follow-up to that provocative research, the team has produced【6】findings about another major health【7】: smoking. In a study published last week in the New England Journal of Medicine, the team found that a person’s decision to【8】the habit is strongly affected by【9】other people in their social network quit—even people they do not know. And, surprisingly, entire networks of smokers appear to quit virtually【10】.

选项 A、how
B、that
C、what
D、whether
答案D
解析 本题要求考生判断空格前后两个分句的逻辑关系，填入恰当的从句引导词。空格前有介词by，表明后面的从句为宾语从句，四个选项均可引导宾语从句。本句意思是“人们戒烟的决定被……影响”，即人们的戒烟行为受到交际圈他人行为的影响。决定有两个“戒”或“不戒”，取决于交往圈的状况，即交往圈里的其他人戒烟还是不戒烟，因此这个宾语从句应含有选择关系，因此D选项whether正确。
